This is Winston Churchill visiting the White House during World War II.

Funny how he isn’t wearing a suit either. Almost like he was a wartime leader defending his country from being slaughtered and wiped out by an authoritarian aggressor.

We just witnessed an ambush - a media lynching - from the President of the United States toward President Zelensky & a democratic nation.

The POTUS just said pull out & side with Russia or we’re out.

Ukraine didn’t start this war.
Putin is a dictator & a murderer.

We must stand with Ukraine.

Are you doing this TODAY!?
NOW!?
PLEASE PASS THIS ON!!

“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.”

Trump did that 👇

Democrat MoCs locked out of the Dept of Education today🤬🤬🤬

Hi all, We’re still here at OPM.

We have a situation where we MIGHT, and I do mean, MIGHT have four of Elon’s people blocked from the building.

Can we get press or a member of Congress down here? We’ve blocked them for two hours and they keep coming back and trying to go in.

Musk's new department, which just seized control over payments as broad as USAID, defense, and social security, is presently livetweeting screenshots as they gleefully stop payments related to DEI, accessibility, and immigration. The account claims $1B in payments have already been cut off.
